For the ssh client use the -p command line option.

For the scp client use the -P command line option. Also use the -p option
anyway because it preserves the timestamps :).

For the server change the Port directive in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. That or
cheat and use port forwarding in a firewall :).

Woohoo! We've got one satisfied customer!

We're glad you enjoyed it and hope you learned something while you were
there. I learned a couple of things, which was awesome.
